Chapter 244: The Kuomintang's Policy (Part II)
"Feng Yong has a special temperament!" Song Qingling said with a deep groan. I don't seem to be sure.
"Special temperament?" Liao Zhongkai was stunned.
Huang Keqiang said with a smile: "Being in a high position, there will always be momentum on your body, not to mention a big man like Feng Shaoshuai who governs the Northeast system." ”
Sun Wen also nodded. There is a good saying, in his position, in that position, even ordinary people will produce a temperament. So they are not surprised by the special temperament that Song Qingling said, and there is nothing surprising about them.
"Nope! This kind of temperament comes from Feng Yong's bones, not like it was acquired. That's why I feel weird! Song Qingling hurriedly explained.
"Oh?" Sun Wen looked up at her, making Song Qingling panic for a moment.
"To be specific, since the second miss has a deep memory, Young Marshal Feng's temperament must be very different." Liao Zhongkai said gently.
"I can't say it! Just feel an atmosphere! An atmosphere that comes from the bones! Song Qingling carefully organized the language and said.
"Atmosphere?" Sun Wen was stunned! Huang Xing was also silent! Liao Zhongkai unconsciously touched his beard. Hu Hanmin was a little confused, but when he saw the changes in several people, his face sank a lot. Jiang Zhongzheng frowned unconsciously, but in his heart he was noncommittal about Feng Yong's temperament. Temperament is just a feeling, it doesn't mean anything.
"Qingling, can you tell me what exactly Feng Yong's atmosphere makes you feel?" Sun Wen asked with a somewhat solemn expression.
"This ...... Feng Yong's temperament seems to be ...... Like the British! I am full of confidence in everything I do! Song Qingling said hesitantly, and then said with great certainty: "Yes, it is the kind of atmosphere on the British." ”
"Poof!" Jiang Zhongzheng laughed out loud, the British are atmospheric? What are you kidding, the British have always been known for being old-fashioned. But looking at Sun Wen and Huang Xing's solemn faces, Jiang Zhongzheng closed his mouth very interestingly.
"Keqiang, what do you think?" Sun Wen said to Huang Xing.
"Great country temperament!" Huang Keqiang said uncertainly.
Sun Wen nodded.
"Prime Minister? What is Great Power Temperament? Jiang Zhongzheng asked suspiciously. It was the first time he had heard of it.
"The temperament of a great country is to live in an incomparably strong country. The strength of the country gives the subjects endless self-confidence, and those who grow up in such an atmosphere will be tainted with the temperament of the whole country. It seems to be more atmospheric than people from other countries. Sun Wen explained. Before the revolution was successful, he had traveled a lot to Western countries, seen a lot, and felt a lot. The citizens of several enduring large countries in the West have this underlying temperament.
At this time, Britain was the world's first power, with colonies all over the world, known as the empire on which the sun never sets. It is the incomparably strong country that gives the British a strong sense of self-confidence, so the British will feel superior no matter which country they are in, and then unconsciously give people a sense of atmosphere.
"But we all know Feng Yong's information that he has absolutely no experience of living abroad, and even if he has lived abroad, he can't regard Britain as a motherland, so as to develop the temperament of a great country." Jiang Zhongzheng asked suspiciously. Song Qingling nodded, this was also where she was puzzled.
"Qingling, do you feel wrong?" Sun Wen's expression was a little depressed, everything related to Feng Yong was always so mysterious.
Song Qingling shook his head firmly.
"Prime Minister, what should we do? How to deal with the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Northeast? The current degree of expansion in the Northeast is already capable of influencing the direction of the Chinese revolution. Huang Xing said. After all, Sun Wen is the leader of the Kuomintang, and the final decision on where the Kuomintang will go is in Sun Wen's hands.
"I'm going to go to the Northeast in person!" Sun Wen groaned. Having never seen Feng Yong in the Northeast with his own eyes, Sun Wen always felt that it was difficult to make a complete decision.
Huang Xing thought for a moment and nodded. Although Sun Wen's identity is sensitive, he has no real power, and even if the Northeast does not want to see him, it will not endanger his safety.
"Prime Minister, can I come with you? I want to see what kind of elite the world-famous Northeast Security Army is! Jiang Zhongzheng looked up and said.
"Originally, I also wanted to go, but I heard that Li Jun, the political dean of the Northeast, is now in the Ganning area. I don't know much about the army, so I still don't go. Liao Zhongkai said with a smile.
"Prime Minister, I think that before you go to the Northeast, you should determine the general direction and policy of our Kuomintang. Now that the domestic environment is complicated, there is a kind of calm before the storm, and I always feel that something big is about to happen. We, the Kuomintang, must make early preparations. Hu Hanmin said.
"Not bad! Premier, it is not possible to come back in a day or two when you go to the Northeast, and now that the international and domestic forms are changing so rapidly, early preparations are also conducive to the development of the Kuomintang. Huang Xing said.
"Hermes-Epitek, how's the provincial overseer contact? Which province did the Overseers lean towards the National Revolution? Sun Wen asked Hu Hanmin.
Hu Hanmin took out a document from the small bag beside him, looked at it, and said: "At present, among the overseers of the southern provinces, only Cai Yi, the governor of the southwest, and Lu Rongting, the overseer of Guangdong, clearly support the democratic revolution. Although Cai Yi is powerful and controls the five southwestern provinces, the Southwest New Army is now a self-contained system, and even the forces that we originally infiltrated have been suppressed. The Kuomintang was extremely weak in the New Army. ”
"Cantonese Overseer? Is Lu Rongting really supportive of the revolution? Sun Wen asked. Although in the south, Cai Ng's Southwest New Army is the strongest and controls a vast territory, including a foundation such as the Land of Abundance, which is densely populated and rich in resources, and Cai Que himself clearly supports the revolution, but since half a year ago, Cai Que has rectified the New Army, so that the command of the New Army, the armed force, has been firmly held by Cai Ng, and the revolutionary party has been secretly cleared out a lot, and the remaining hidden forces have also been dormant. The Governor's Office in the Southwest did not exclude revolutionaries from participating in politics, but Sun Wen, who had experienced the defeat of the Great Revolution, had already recognized the importance of the barrel of a gun. The reason why Yuan Shikai was able to steal the fruits of the victory of the Xinhai Revolution was not because he controlled the Beiyang Army, the most powerful in China. Therefore, when Sun Wen knew that the new army in the southwest could not control it, he put his mind on the other overseers.
Hu Hanmin nodded and said: "Lu Rongting used to be a member of the Southwest Coalition Army, since Cai Yi implemented centralization and established the Southwest New Army, Lu Rongting withdrew and established the Gui Local Army with the strength in his hands. I want to dominate the two worlds. It's just that now most of Guangxi's land has fallen into the hands of the Southwest New Army, and Lu Rongting has also moved his headquarters from Guangxi to Guangdong, officially serving as the overseer of Guangdong. Although Cai Yi did not kill Lu Rongting because of his feelings back then, the continuous expansion of the Southwest New Army made Lu Rongting feel heavy pressure, and he now urgently needed a foreign aid, a foreign aid that could assist the Gui family in resisting the Southwest New Army. ”
"It's just to find a foreign aid, I'm afraid Lu Rongting is not really for the revolution!" Liao Zhongkai said disdainfully. These warlords, no matter what attitude they show, are essentially self-serving. Liao Zhongkai despises this kind of behavior of being a bitch and setting up an archway.
"Prime Minister, our Kuomintang, as the largest party in China, must have its own foundation, although Lu Rongting is suspected of using us, but the Gui warlords have tens of thousands of troops, if our Kuomintang can master it, and then take Guangdong Province and part of Guangxi Province as the foundation, it may not be impossible to develop into another force in China. Even when the strength is strong, it can send troops to the Northern Expedition and completely realize the democratic revolution. Hu Hanmin said. Everyone's eyes lit up, and they were all attracted by the bright prospects depicted by Hu Hanmin. In particular, Chiang Kai-shek, who was born in the military, was even more excited, knowing that although he attended the Supreme Council of the Kuomintang as a soldier, in fact the Kuomintang did not have a regular army at all. This is also where Chiang Kai-shek struggled the most. If it weren't for the support of revolutionary enthusiasm, I am afraid that he would have found another job long ago.
"Is Lu Rongting reliable?" Sun Wen asked.
"With the pressure of the Southwest New Army, Lu Rongting will only seek self-protection with the help of the resources of our Kuomintang. There is absolutely no need to make the slightest move. And we revolutionaries will not be used by it in vain. We must build a revolutionary contingent of our own. Hu Hanmin suggested.
"That's right! Prime Minister, only the army that we have personally cultivated can become the cornerstone of the revolution. The warlord's forces can be used, but they cannot be relied upon. Chiang Kai-shek said firmly.
Huang Keqiang also expressed support. Sun Wen groaned slightly and nodded.
"Keqiang! Now that Hermes-Epitek has contacted Lu Rongting, we can move the Kuomintang headquarters to Guangdong as soon as possible. Zhong Kai is responsible for the specific work. I hope we made the right choice. Sun Wen said. Although the Kuomintang is now only an opposition party with some influence, and although it has the strength to control public opinion, the absence of an army does not attract much attention. The historical Sun Wen entered Guangdong a few years later. But now because of Feng Yong's butterfly effect, Cai Ye not only did not die, but also worshipped Feng Yong, and his thoughts were also influenced by Feng Yong, reorganized the Southwest New Army, and all the military power was received into his own hands. After all, it is now the Republic of China. The idea of democracy is still very marketable. The influence of the Kuomintang in terms of public opinion is unparalleled. And based on Lu Rongting's understanding of Cai Yi, Cai Yi is a person who cares about his reputation very much. If the Gui family puts on the coat of a revolutionary army, it will make Cai Yi have some concerns, although it cannot essentially change the situation of confrontation between the two sides, but at least it can relieve the pressure on the Guangxi front.
"What about the trip to the Northeast?" Hu Hanmin asked.
